Hezbollah Denies Israel Has Taken Strategic Ali Taher Ridge in South Lebanon

Hezbollah issued an official denial of Israeli control over the Ali Taher ridge and the village of Tbeineh in southern Lebanon, responding to a map released by the IDF spokesman. In its statement, the group said the IDF has been trying for four days to advance toward the area from several directions, with artillery fire supporting the effort.

The organization stressed that the Ali Taher ridge is a matter of serious importance for Hezbollah. The statement was framed as a direct rebuttal to the Israeli military’s claim of territorial control in the area, which lies in southern Lebanon.
